sUMMER CAMPS

2026

Ascension Volleyball Summer Camps are designed to provide children and youth with an engaging, challenging, and supportive volleyball experience that fosters athletic, social, and personal growth both on and off the court. Through our three-tiered camp structure, athletes are grouped by age and developmental stage to ensure an environment that is age-appropriate, progressive, and empowering for every participant.

 

Tier 1 introduces young athletes to the game through movement, coordination, teamwork, and foundational volleyball skills in a fun and encouraging atmosphere.

 

Tier 2 expands upon these foundations through increased technical development, gameplay application, and cooperative learning experiences that help athletes build confidence, communication, and game understanding.

 

Tier 3: High Performance is designed for athletes seeking to elevate their performance through advanced volleyball systems, strength and conditioning, mental skills training, nutrition education, and sport science concepts that support complete athlete development.

 

Across all tiers, athletes will develop volleyball-specific skills such as serving, passing, setting, hitting, blocking, digging, movement patterns, and reading/responding to game situations. Throughout the full week camp experience, athletes will engage in structured daily training blocks, gameplay activities, mentorship opportunities, and collaborative learning environments that progressively build confidence, skill development, teamwork, and personal growth over the course of each 9am–4pm training day.

 

At Ascension Volleyball, we believe sport is about more than isolated physical performance. Our camps interweave character development, leadership, emotional intelligence, growth mindset, and positive communication into the training environment to help athletes become stronger teammates, learners, and individuals. Through interactive drills, game play, mentorship, and supportive coaching, participants will have opportunities to apply their skills in competitive and collaborative environments while building confidence, friendships, and a deeper love for the game.
